I upgraded from a e-pm1 to a e-pm2 and used it for a number of years. The only thing that I really did not feel completely comfortable was the shutter. So I bought a GX85 which has an improved mechanical shutter as well as e-shutter. I have to say that even the mechanical shutter in GX85 is extremely good with no hint of shock that I can detect.

I just moved from a GX8 to an E-M1.2 and the softer shutter was the first thing I noticed. Not that the GX8's shutter was bad, not at all.

One thing I miss is that Oly has no way to attach a sound to the e-shutter release. I'm old school and like audible feedback.
